ISO Raz Kids access for my 4th grader
Katherine Harris
#1341 Hello everyone, My 1st grader son uses the Raz Kids website for reading (with quizzes to test comprehension) thought an access code his teacher gave him. My 4th grader son, who is verbal autistic and struggles with reading and especially comprehension, regularly asked to read and take quizzes on Raz Kids application; however the 1st grader books of his brother are too simple for my older son. However, my fourth grader responds so well to Raz Kids' reading format andquizzes to test comprehension (which is an area of weakness for him)that we'd love for him to have access to Raz Kids. My older son's home OG reading tutor said that Raz Kids would be great for him. However, my older son's special education teacher checked on this at my urging and she said that our school (they both attend Patrick Henry ES) only bought access for 1st graders.
Thanks very much! |
Donna Owens #1342 Katherine - I found the Raz Kids website online (https://www.raz-kids.com) and you can purchase a 'home subscription' for $99 per year. I'm also curious if you school has any recommendations for an alternative e guided reading subscription if they don't offer Raz Kids for beyond 1st grade. I checked the Arlington County Public Library, and they have Tumble Books and BookFlix as audiobooks for kids - not sure if that is something comparable, but might be worth checking out: http://library.arlingtonva.us/collections/ecollection/ebooks/ Also, here is the link to the APS Library Services webpage, discussing their ebooks and eAudiobook collections.http://www.apsva.us/Page/1986 Donna Specializing in Fine Art Children's and Family Portraiture On Dec 7, 2015, at 9:11 PM, "Katherine Harris harriskath@...

#1343 Katherine - ask the Special Ed teacher to double check with the reading specialist. Before our school had lots of RazKids subscriptions the reading specialist had a few logins that she was able to give out to kids. Also double check with your IT coordinator - they may know of some way to get a few extra subscriptions or to use a slot that maybe was purchased but isn't being used. toggle quoted messageShow quoted text From: "Katherine Harris harriskath@...

#1344 Katherine: My son attends The Lab School and Raz Kids is big part of their daily reading practice at home. The reading difficulty goes up as the kids progress through the levels and it has been a great resource for us. Good luck. Stephanie On Mon, Dec 7, 2015 at 9:11 PM, Katherine Harris harriskath@...

#1355 Thankfully, our school made it work for my older son with an extra subscription, so he can read some books online too. (They literally worked this out overnight, I'm really impressed.) I'll also check out the additional resources you suggested. Thanks very much, Donna! Katherine toggle quoted messageShow quoted text On Mon, Dec 7, 2015 at 9:36 PM, Donna Owens donnaowens@...
